If Al Gore jumped in the race last minute, would you vote for him?

[Narz]

Simple question. Vote in the poll and post why or why not!

There is no poll!

 

[EdCase]

I see no poll. But answer is no. I cannot pin down why, just a "gut feeling" it would be wrong thing to do.

 

[Irish Caesar]

If he was in the race now, I wouldn't vote for him; I don't see why I'd vote for him if he jumped in at the last minute...

But then, I'm not planning on voting in the Democratic primary anyway.

 

[nivi]

Probably not.

 

[The Yankee]

The poll is made only after the thread is made. So it will be forthcoming.

And I highly doubt I'd cast my vote for him, at least in the primaries. It's too early to think about what to do for the general election, since the final combatants haven't been selected, yet.

 

[CIVPhilzilla]

No, I don't like voting for a hypocrite and a previous loser.

 

[bhsup]

Obviously, I would not vote for him either in the primary or the general election.

On a side note, I just can't help thinking of that legendary Hank Williams song whenever I think of Al.

Spoiler :

KAWLIGA WAS A WOODEN INDIAN STANDING BY THE DOOR
HE FELL IN LOVE WITH AN INDIAN MAIDEN OVER IN THE ANTIQUE STORE
KAW - LI - GA

JUST STOOD THERE AND NEVER LET IT SHOW
SO SHE COULD NEVER ANSWER YES OR NO

HE ALWAYS WORE HIS SUNDAY FEATHERS AND HELD A TOMAHAWK
THE MAIDEN WORE HER BEADS AND BRAIDS AND HOPED SOME DAY HE'D TALK
KAW - LI - GA
TOO STUBBORN TO EVER SHOW A SIGN
BECAUSE HIS HEART WAS MADE OF KNOTTY PINE

POOR OL' KAW - LI - GA, HE NEVER GOT A KISS
POOR OL' KAW - LI - GA, HE DON'T KNOW WHAT HE MISSED
IS IT ANY WONDER THAT HIS FACE IS RED
KAW - LI - GA, THAT POOR OL' WOODEN HEAD

KAWLIGA WAS A WOODEN INDIAN, NEVER WENT NOWHERE
HIS HEART WAS SET ON THE INDIAN MAIDEN WITH THE COAL BLACK HAIR
KAW - LI - GA
JUST STOOD THERE AND NEVER LET IT SHOW
SO SHE COULD NEVER ANSWER YES OR NO
AND THEN ONE DAY A WEALTHY CUSTOMER BOUGHT THE INDIAN MAID
AND TOOK HER OH SO FAR AWAY BUT OL KAW - LI - GA STAYED
KAW - LI - GA

JUST STANDS THERE AS LONELY AS CAN BE
AND WISHES HE WAS STILL AN OLD PINE TREE

 

[Leonel]

Voting is for chumps!

 

[Elrohir]

Who seriously wants Al Gore to run? The man's a balding loser who spends his time making crappy documentaries. Surely Obama and Clinton are better candidates - heck, even Edwards would probably do better in the general election.

 

[Godwynn]

I would've voted for him in 2000 if I had the chance.

No, I wouldn't in 2008.

 

[North King]

I'd not vote for him in the primary, but assuming he won the primary, I'd vote for him wholeheartedly over any of the other main candidates from the other side.

 

[Narz]

I'd not vote for him in the primary, but assuming he won the primary, I'd vote for him wholeheartedly over any of the other main candidates from the other side.

I need to include that option too, my poll is all messed up.

 

[The Yankee]

No, I don't like voting for ... a previous loser.

Like Reagan! Or Bush I!

 

[The Yankee]

I would've voted for him in 2000 if I had the chance.

No, I wouldn't in 2008.

Basically my stance.

Just to see how much time he'd spend under the desk sucking his thumb.

 

[Fifty]

I'd vote for him if and only if it would make you happy narz baby.

 

[robo-snickers]

i would

he is pretty sexy even though he is getting fat

 

[ohcrapitsnico]

I would vote for him and in the election.

 

[.Shane.]

The hate is strong in this thread.

 

[Stewbert 08]

I wouldn't vote for him in the primaries. A last minute jump in with no platform, campaigning on recognition and the "ooh shiny" factor alone, is a recipe for disaster.

AHEM, Fred Thompson.

Also, campaigning on "inevitability" is a disservice to the voters.

AHEM, Rudy Giuliani and Hillary Clinton.




Basically he should have entered at least last month if he was interested. I don't think he's going to join now.

But if he somehow won the primaries you bet yo ass I'd vote for him over Mormney or July Annie or Frederick Of Hollywood. Cuz he's still 30 times the American they all are put together.
